An investigation is underway after a body was found in a homeless encampment in San Luis Obispo on Thursday afternoon.

At 2:25 p.m., a 9-1-1 caller reported a suspicious circumstance at an encampment near a Chevron gas station on Los Osos Valley Road. Officers arrived to find a deceased person near a creek not far from the intersection of Los Osos Valley Road and Calle Joaquin.

SLO Police Department detectives and the SLO County Sheriff Coroner’s Office are investigating the death. CalCoastNews will provide additional information after it becomes available.

Probably bought Meth from the Anderson Hotel…

Clean these Camps out once and for all… they are dangerous… open up CMC west and place them there until they clean up and become responsible and drug free…

You would get the usual responses from the “we care so much” people, about putting them in prison without “due process”.

Except, the West campus was a Hospital, long before it was a prison wing.

SLO County is moving over 50 homeless people from the creeks and Bob Jones trail to Bishop and Johnson Ave where they’ve put up tiny homes for them.

As is ignorance in many cases.

So is success? So is mediocrity? So is “fill in the blank”. I don’t think so.
